    I brought Wiperblades, or very similar from Ebay, flat curved blades for my Avensis last year, just before winter.

    They don't have all the metal spring bits and was a bit sceptical.

    Needn't have been they work really well even at speed.

    At that price you can also afford to change them more often if need be too!

  • Ford branded wiper blades have the Bosch logo on, so I replaced mine with Bosch branded blades which are obviously cheaper.

    I wouldn't recommend this, those "Aero" blades are very popular right now, most on Ebay will be cheap fakes/copies.

    With your halfords trade card, bosch blades are about £9 for a twin pack, from Halfords obviously!

    I do love my halfords trade card sometimes!:money:

    Not interested in budget range, just the best / best for the money.
    If you are happy with the originals(?), go buy genuine manufacturer's parts @ your local dealer or try online>

    Halfords also sell the Valeo flat blades as well, not sure what the price would be with a trade card though.

    I fitted Bosch bought from Halfords to my jag X type. Worked perfectly well.
